Laudrup seeking advice

London: Michael Laudrup is seeking legal advice after being sacked by Premier League club Swansea City, the Dane said on Thursday.

He released a statement via the League Managers’ Association (LMA), which said he was told of his dismissal on Tuesday by a brief letter and given no reason for the decision.

“I am deeply disappointed to have been dismissed as manager of Swansea City,” Laudrup said.

“In particular, the manner in which it happened and the actions the club has taken since notifying me in the briefest of letters which gave no reasons why such hasty and final action was deemed necessary.

“I am, of course, taking legal advice and the LMA have already written to the club asking for a proper explanation as to why I was summarily dismissed.” Swansea sacked Laudrup with the team in 12th spot, but just two points above the relegation zone. (reuters)
